XLR female microphone connector

The Monoprice 106211 is a 3-pin XLR female connector designed for terminating bulk microphone cable. It suits installers, stage technicians and studio builders who need reliable solder-point connections for balanced audio runs. The black nickel-tin body and gold-plated pins provide a professional finish for custom cable assemblies.

Gold-plated pins and strain relief

Gold plating on the three pins resists oxidation to maintain low-contact resistance over repeated mating cycles. A rubber strain relief boot at the cable exit absorbs bending stress and protects the solder joints from mechanical fatigue during handling or permanent installation.

Two connectors per pack for stereo or spare

Each package supplies two identical connectors, allowing a single purchase to complete a stereo pair or provide a spare for field repairs. The connector accepts standard XLR cable diameters and requires only basic soldering tools and heat shrink for a finished lead. Buyers needing pre-assembled cables or right-angle bodies will need a different product.

Questions about this item

How do I solder the cable to the three pins on this XLR connector?

Strip the cable, tin each wire, insert them into the three solder cups on the gold-plated pins, then heat each cup until the solder flows and secure the strain-relief boot over the cable.

Will the gold-plated pins or the nickel-tin body need periodic cleaning or replacement?

The gold-plated pins resist corrosion and the nickel-tin body is durable; no scheduled cleaning or replacement is required under normal use.

At what cable diameter does the rubber strain-relief boot stop sealing properly?

The boot is sized for standard microphone cable diameters; excessively thick or thin cables may not seal tightly, so match the boot to your bulk cable specifications.
